Heals turn into a shield, the shield can go up to 100% of a raiders original hp

Entire Phase 1 Miasma, not Phase 2 Blood Rage

Phase 1 Miasma:

○ Ancient Barrier will be active during Phase 1 Miasma○ The entire raid will get a shield buff called Ancient Barrier, that absorbs all healing and turns it into a shield○ The shield can go up to 100% of a raiders original hp

Well this is a cool idea, use gifs for explaining boss mechanics! I like it!

If you have not already got it, and you are reading this, go download the wow addon "Malkorok Helper", it brings up a pie graph looking tab similar to the DBM range radar, which when you type /mal ai will automatically mark bad areas caused by arching smash and breath of (gobbeldygook) keep in mind though the ai of the addon is optimized for 25 man groups so you may have to manually mark by left clicking the segment, right clicking will clear selections, clicking the cog that looks like a config button will actualy cause the addon to rotate the map as you move

Excellent idea. This broken down and simply put guide with to-the-point gifs explains things in more detail that not only the dungeon journal didn't explain plainly, but also the screams of 'STTAACCKKK' don't explain.

I can only hope this becomes a major trend away from drawn out videos for the next expansion, cause I'm one of those people who can't see something until I've seen it...ya know what I mean? Like when you're tracking Patrannache, and you start going crazy because you don't know if you're looking for the right thing, and you keep double-checking the WoWhead screen shots, and suddenly you're seeing gumdrops and coffee mugs all over the place as your eyes blur in and out of vision repeatedly until FINALLY...you see one, you know what the clawprint looks like, and now you can see it out of the corner of your eye from 300 feet away because you've got ant vision (when you look at the ground and see nothing but the ground, then cross your eyes and focus on a small movement, and when you bring your eyes back into focus you realize the ground is moving cause holy cheese curls the world is covered in ants) and .........yeah....I just spent three hours tracking beasts...

Anyway, seeing each specific, animated effect with its description is an invaluable resource, so thanks, and keep it up!

Cool idea, GIFs take too long to load to be more effective than a YouTube video.

This actually helps me a lot in regards to tanking :)

Hello, it's the guide creator here! I would like to ask if people would be interested in helping me make guides for WoD raids, as it is massive work for me alone. I think an effective way of making guides would be taking a couple of bosses or maybe a wing per person and after it's done we could help improve the guides together (like typos, better gifs, better descriptions). If we pick up some good speed we could make challenge mode or brawlers guild gif guides as well ^^
